Default Ryobi 32 comversion (weedie)

I am considering a Ryobi 32 conversion for a 4*120. I know the weedie conversions are a bit heavy and not a great power to weight ratio, but is this a "Real dog" that should only be used on a large Cub or similar plane, or would it give the 4*120 the same performance that say a 120 glow 4 stroke would? I am not necessarily looking for unlimited vertical, but have already had an underpowered trainer and prefer to have some reserve power on any planes I build from now on. I've already got one fellas input who flys a Ryobi/ 4* 120, but would also like a few other opinions if possible. I really like the 4*120 and plan to build one this winter, but engine cost will definetly have a bearing on whether I do or not.

Thanks guys,
Dwight Hayden
